00:30The envelope stuff in lesson in school
00:31Excuse me
00:32Too busy wanking Harvey Thomas at the back of the class
00:35Oops
00:37I think I've ruined that one
00:41Thanks for coming everyone
00:43Welcome to those who are new
00:45If you're a second timer, can't believe you came back
00:48Third timers, you're as mad as me
00:50Wahey!
00:52The Regional Health Authority report will be out soon
00:56And in preparation for the RHA
00:58Des has a few things he'd like us to do
01:00As always, it sounds deathly dull
01:02But give him a go
01:03Thank you, Susan, for that generous introduction
01:06Right, we need to prove four things
01:09One
01:10We need proof that a cluster of women
01:12Who carried babies at the same time
01:14And were affected by this
01:16Exists
01:16Now, the Health Authority report will show that
01:19Two
01:21That there was a reason
01:22Why you were affected
01:24How the toxins from the reclamation
01:26Got into your system
01:27Anglian Water
01:28Currently investigating their supply
01:30Three
01:31We need proof that these toxins
01:33Had a direct impact
01:35On your unborn children
01:37Then four
01:38We need knowledge and negligence
01:41That they could have done more to prevent this
01:43And that they knowingly didn't
01:45We're hoping to get disclosure from the council on that
01:48I want to introduce you to Danny
01:50Who's working with me on this
01:52Hello, Danny
01:53Right, Danny is going to be handing out some forms
01:56Yes, very dull forms for you
01:58Which will be the beginnings of your witness statement
02:00Those statements will be the bedrock
02:03On which we build our case
02:20Chair
02:21I'd like to raise a point of order
02:23If you want to introduce a motion, Sam
02:25You need a second
02:26While the police investigation
02:29Hampered by the fire
02:30Is ongoing
02:31I would like to suggest that the council
02:33Consider suspending contracts
02:35With Rhodes and Miller Construction
02:36Sam, come on now
02:37Look, is this how you're going to do it, Roy?
02:41Be a leader
02:42By silencing anyone who disagrees with you
02:44Because that's not how you said it was going to be
02:46Councillor Hagen, do you have a second there for your motion?
02:49The police investigation has taken 18 months so far
02:53And Rhodes and Miller have been profiteering in all that time
02:56And I think that is an absolute disgrace
02:59Councillor Hagen, sit down
03:00Or I'll have to ask you to leave
03:10Now
03:12Minutes from the development meeting
03:14Councillor Fray, are you ready?
03:16Thank you
03:37Come on, Ted?
03:40Come on, son, find everybody and lose
03:45Look, I just want to talk
03:48Everything I know
03:57You've got to see it
04:07This report was commissioned by Northamptonshire Health Authority
04:10In conjunction with Corby Borough Council
04:13To investigate allegations of a cluster of birth defects
04:17In Corby between 1984 and 1998
04:22Today I can confirm that the epidemiological study found no difference between the rate of children with birth defects born
04:30to mothers in Corby and those in the wider Kettering area
04:34In fact, the figure was slightly lower
04:36Therefore, no cluster was found in Corby
04:43No
04:43Can't be
04:45What are we, a curb check?
04:46If you look in the report
04:47I'm looking around this room and I see mother after mother
04:51Mrs. McIntyre, I understand your frustration but I believe you've been encouraged by your lawyers to look for something that
04:57simply isn't there
04:58Simply isn't there
04:59The findings in the report clearly state that there is
05:02The findings in the report ignore the fucking facts
05:04Okay
05:05Okay
05:06Let's keep this civil
05:07Why don't you take some time to digest what's been written
05:09And if you have any questions
05:11It doesn't need digesting
05:12It's already been digested
05:13And it's a load of shite
05:14All right
05:15Okay
05:17Our fireworks over
05:19Thank you
05:19Settle down
05:20Thank you, thank you
05:22Let's look at this
05:23Come on, love, let's get home
05:24You know, I feel as if I should say something
05:27Say what?
05:28There's no telling some people
05:29Look, they looked at it
05:31And it was nothing
05:32Doctor, please
05:32Loud mouths like Susan McIntyre are always going to give off
05:35But we're not her, are we?
05:36Extensive environmental testing
05:38It's going
05:38What?
05:39There is no evidence that we see pollution in this area to limit people
05:47And thank you, everyone for your patience
05:49Where's Maggie?
05:50Oh, our fellow pulled her away
05:51This is not what any of us were expecting
05:53They're lying
05:54They're lying
05:55And they are
05:56Well, they might be lying but
05:57I doubt it
05:58People are never that deliberately pernicious
06:01I expect it's rather incompetence
06:03But
06:05It is a setback
06:05And what the fuck is pernicious when it's a
06:08Mean
06:09Oh
06:09You disagree?
06:11Well, I have more bad news, I'm afraid
06:14Anglia and Water have come back and
06:16Have produced records which show that there were no unusual
06:19Substances found in the water supply
06:21During the land reclamation
06:22And they're not being mean either
06:26I don't think so
06:28Look
06:31Let's not pretend this isn't disappointing
06:34But there are other avenues that we can explore
06:37What about that talk of a police report? The fire?
06:40The police are investigating corruption
06:43It might be useful but as it's a criminal investigation
06:46We can't get involved
06:47So what do we do, Des?
06:50Er, well
06:52As Danny said
06:54We'll find a way
06:58There's generally a way
07:04Ok
07:05Hey
07:05Come first
07:05Come
07:11Daddy daddy
07:12Hello, are you ok?
07:14What are you doing?
07:15You ok?
07:17How are you doing?
07:21Ok
07:27You okay, love?
07:31You still reading that?
07:33Yeah.
07:35I was trying to work out where
07:37Shelby Ann fitted in, but
07:40they used so many words.
07:45Shall I get the tea on then?
07:49I haven't been reading it all day,
07:51if that's what you're thinking.
07:59I need her.
08:03We all do.
08:13He's gone.
08:14Don't you know?
08:15Des is going.
08:16How do you figure that?
08:17Trust me, I can smell when a man has had enough.
08:22Is this a good idea, Susan?
08:25Definitely.
08:27Probably.
08:28Maybe.
08:29You're a Muppet, you know that?
08:30You're a Muppet for following me, come on.
08:41Come on.
08:42Okay.
08:43I'm going to bunk you up.
08:45No.
08:46Come on.
08:47Come on, I'm ready.
08:49God.
08:51Right.
08:51Yeah.
08:52Yeah.
08:53Yeah.
08:56You've got a surprisingly muscular heart.
08:59What?
09:01Okay.
09:02Go on then.
09:02Get the samples.
09:04Oh great, so now I'm doing a burglary without you.
09:07Ah.
09:15Hey.
09:16There's three bottles in there and some gloves and a carrier bag so you don't get the rucksack dirty.
09:20It's kind of a school bag to be honest.
09:23We need to prove to Des there's toxic in there.
09:26Okay.
09:48Message from the council.
09:50That is closing.
09:51Saying that all the pieces we requested were unfortunately burnt in the fire.
09:56They'll try their best though unfortunately their file index was also...
09:59Burnt in the fire?
10:00Mm-hmm.
10:03Who's that?
10:04Lydia Short.
10:05She's got a 16 year old with an upper limb difference.
10:10Good morning.
10:12Even better morning when you see what we've got for you.
10:14Yeah.
10:21Give me a clue.
10:22It's from the reclaimed land behind Electrogen where Rhodes Miller worked.
10:28Why is it useful?
10:29Because it'll show all the toxic.
10:31Of course it will.
10:32It's from the reclamation site.
10:33We know that's toxic.
10:34So what we're trying to understand is whether that toxic water had somehow leaked into the water supply.
10:41Unfortunately for our case it hadn't.
10:44So all this was for nothing?
10:48You haven't got a rash or anything?
10:49No.
10:50But she might want to finish with her.
10:54Look, I...
10:56I appreciate the effort.
10:58Right.
11:03For what?
11:05For everything you did.
11:09I'm surprisingly grateful to be honest.
11:12For...
11:12For me too.
11:14You're giving up?
11:15No, you're giving up.
11:18Am I?
11:19Why?
11:20Because there's no case.
11:23Of course there's a case.
11:26The RHA can't see a cluster.
11:28We can.
11:30We just need to prove it.
11:32Anglian Water says it's not a problem in the water supply,
11:35but there must be some other way that it's gone into your systems.
11:40We had four points to prove.
11:42We've still got four points to prove.
11:46Just this has to be possible.
11:47And I am far from done.
11:50She has to kiss him.
11:52Why do I have to kiss him?
11:53Because he'll be scared if I try and kiss him.
11:54You're more the mirror.
11:55He likes the mirror.
11:56No, but he needs to kiss me.
11:58Listen, we will find what's happened here.
12:02I promise.
12:13Come in.
12:16Sam.
12:16Right.
12:17Been a while since we had a chance to chat.
12:19I've been available.
12:20I know.
12:22This office at each time.
12:24Well, we're here now.
12:25And I would like to raise a concern about the Willowbrook A site.
12:28Sam.
12:28It's been decided.
12:29The next election we need to be renewing candidates.
12:36So who's on that list?
12:41It's the Blair era.
12:43You understand?
12:44They like them young.
12:46I'm sure my time is numbered too.
12:48No, no.
12:51My future's not your decision to make, Roy.
12:54That's the decision of my branch.
12:57Maybe your branch has spoken to me.
13:02Maybe I'm giving you a chance to get in front of their decision.
13:04No.
13:04As a friend.
13:05No, I can't.
13:07You didn't know this was coming?
13:08Come on.
13:09You're not so naive to think this is a grand surprise.
13:12I went to the police about Rhodes and Miller.
13:14Not you.
13:15It's not about that.
13:16It's about renewal.
13:16I just think you got rid of the wrong people.
13:19And I think if you think about it.
13:20You think, you think, you think.
13:22You ever think you think too much?
13:26Party discipline matters.
13:28If we all just follow our own egos nothing gets done.
13:31We tow the line and we make the change from within.
13:35I'm never more nervous than when making proposals to the Labour Group
13:37because that's where change happens.
13:42I was a good counsellor.
13:45I was a fucking good counsellor, Roy.
13:52And now you'll be a good whatever you'll be.
13:58Plenty of time to get that golf in, huh?
14:22Plenty of time to get that golf in, huh?
14:24No.
14:28Go on, Claw.
14:30Tell us which part of her you want to touch first.
14:33You know what?
14:33Law isn't such a good name.
14:35There's Captain Hook, Flipper Fingers, Mr Crab.
14:38I don't know.
14:39But I do know what I should call you.
14:42You twat.
14:51Hey, hey, turn it.
14:53Get off the angel now.
14:54Get off.
14:54Keep up.
14:57Can't say I haven't done worse.
14:58But that doesn't mean that I'm not.
15:00I mean clocking the lad.
15:02Hey?
15:03Bully or not?
15:05Can you not think of something better?
15:06Now you've got yourself suspended.
15:10So that bitch headmistress.
15:14Come on.
15:15Can you keep up, Al?
15:19How long has it been like that?
15:20Not long.
15:22You're supposed to tell me the minute.
15:25Have you been putting your cream on?
15:26Yeah.
15:27And in fact you couldn't mean that the doctor's
15:28to lay another op.
15:29Do you want your hand better?
15:30This is my hand.
15:32This is it.
15:32This is what it looks like.
15:34And I don't like cosmetals
15:35and I don't want it.
15:37Not anymore.
15:38I don't want any of it.
15:41Connor.
15:42Connor.
15:59Professor Happy?
16:00Yes.
16:00Thanks so much for seeing us.
16:01My name's Des.
16:02This is Danny.
16:03We're working on behalf of a group of parents in Corby
16:05and wondered if you have a moment
16:06to take a look at a health authority report
16:08that we're investigating and believe to be flawed.
16:13Another blank face, another no.
16:15There must be someone.
16:17We'll prove this report wrong.
16:20What about food?
16:22Beef?
16:23Sorry?
16:24Toxins have entered their system by contaminated beef
16:27or maybe vegetables.
16:30Instead of the water and...
16:34Right.
16:35We'll get soil samples from all the surrounding farms.
16:39We probably first need a sense of what these women ate.
16:43Oh.
16:45We're on it!
16:48See you all next week.
16:53Dr Parker?
16:55Do you have a minute?
16:56You're not my students.
16:58We wondered if you could look at some documents for us.
17:01It's been quite a day.
17:03Can we speak in the morning?
17:04We could do.
17:04It's just we've driven all the way up from Northamptonshire
17:07to talk to you tonight.
17:09See me in Newcastle.
17:10Bye.
17:11Well, because you never answer your phone or your emails,
17:14but also because every other epidemiologist we've spoken to
17:19thinks this report is right and we think they're wrong.
17:26Shall we start at the beginning?
17:28What's the report of?
17:33What do you mean?
17:36What do you mean?
17:37What are you doing?
17:37I'm just in the kitchen.
17:39She drives fast on the bicycle.
17:41The bicycle.
17:45Ordington's, please.
17:46It's been stolen in the room.
17:47Can you have a game, Lloyd?
17:48Yeah.
17:54Lager and a whisky, Peter.
17:59Drinks are on Pat Miller
18:02Police report on the alleged corruption just in
18:04No charges being brought
18:06Well maybe I'll buy two more drinks then
18:09I'd like to make a toast
18:11I'd like to make it to this man
18:14Pat
18:16You're an arsehole
18:18Terrible man
18:20But you're our arsehole
18:21Wight in your mouth boys
18:23You think you should be celebrating this?
18:28One and a half million documents they look through
18:31You know what's there
18:32One hundred and ten statements
18:33You know the truth
18:34You don't want to listen
18:35Because you're frightened it's going to damage your town
18:38And the truth is
18:38We did nothing wrong
18:40Because you burnt the fucking evidence
18:43Now hang on
18:44That's absolute bollocks
18:49And just so you know
18:50I'm standing independently at the election
18:53You do what you will
18:55And an anti-corruption ticket
18:56I'm calling myself the Clean Corby candidate
18:59Just thought I'd let you know
19:01As a friend
19:02Clean Corby
19:03Fuck it
19:05You could have litter picking compulsory
19:07Like conscription
19:08Everyone in the town needs to carry a litter picker
19:11So there can be a little old woman
19:12Just like you
19:14Heavy as the head that wears the crown
19:16Hey Roy
19:18You know you were always a wanker
19:20But you never used to be a cunt
19:23You think you've rebuilding this town
19:25Truth is
19:27You're destroying it
19:41Hello I'm Sam Hagen
19:43I've been a Labour councillor for Corby
19:45For the last 20 years
19:46I'm currently standing as an independent candidate
19:48For re-election
19:48Thank you
19:50Oh hello
19:50My name's Des Collins
19:52I'm calling from Collins solicitors
19:54Looking to speak to Nicholas McDowell
19:56About a fetal medicine case
19:58Anti-corruption
19:59What this town needs is investment
20:01No more bloody red tape
20:05Okay thank you
20:18This toe here
20:20The tissues are certainly fit enough
20:22To make it an excellent candidate
20:24And the infection will
20:25The infection will have cleared up
20:26Before we come to operate
20:28I hear that Conor
20:29That's good news
20:32Let's hope we get some luck this time
20:44Pizza
20:49He doesn't want to keep going with the ops
20:53And what do you think?
20:54I'm just trying to be a good mother
20:56Don't want him to throw his life away
20:59This is about his future
21:00You understand?
21:01You don't need two hands for everything
21:02For the sort of jobs he'll qualify for
21:04Two hands will be bloody useful
21:07Pizza
21:09Kids pizza
21:11How can you do that and I can't?
21:13Practice
21:13Oh
21:16Police report came out
21:18Sorry
21:26Our stairs
21:29We've seen
21:30Another cover-up
21:32Not rigging about that
21:34No
21:34Yeah it's disappointing
21:35But we'll ignore it because
21:37Big news just in
21:39The RHA double counted
21:41What?
21:42They counted birth defects in the whole Kettering area
21:45Including Corby
21:46And then compared that number against Corby alone
21:49It threw off the whole statistical field
21:51They got the spread wrong
21:53There is a cluster
21:54It's the first of the four to us
21:55The RHA got it wrong
21:57They're not meant to get things like that wrong
21:59You're going to be the ones to remind everyone
22:01We've been offered a slot on GMTV
22:03I want you to do it Susan
22:05GMTV
22:06Every time that we do publicity
22:08More women come forward
22:09I want you and Maggie to do it
22:14Me and Maggie?
22:15Well
22:16Shouldn't it be me and Tracy?
22:18Well if you don't mind Tracy
22:19I think the mix is better with Maggie
22:21If you always aren't posher
22:22Tracy's posh enough
22:24Maggie doesn't like me
22:25It's more that
22:26Connor and Sam have similar disabilities
22:28It's a better combination
22:30I think it's a good idea
22:36Every time I hope my God
22:37More people hate me
22:38You know that
22:43Yeah
22:43I'll do it
22:46Thank you Susan
22:48Thank you Tracy
22:54I thought you didn't like people looking at you
22:57Now you're going on the telly
22:58No because Des asked me
22:59She wouldn't even let Toby video our wedding
23:02What is it?
23:04You're worried Pat won't like it?
23:07I've got my promotion
23:09Just like you asked
23:10But it doesn't mean what happened to Samuel
23:11Means nothing though does it?
23:15Do you have to keep hoovering?
23:16The RHA report was wrong
23:19You made me leave all those other mothers
23:20Because you said
23:21It proved there was nothing to it
23:23I thought I was right
23:25Well you weren't
23:26And so I'm doing GMTV
23:28And I don't care what Pat thinks about it
23:32Thank you
23:33Thank you
23:40Have you been to the palace before?
23:42You know what?
23:43As cheeky as it is
23:44Les never invited me
23:49Like outside
23:50Through a photo
23:51With the men on horses and stuff
23:54Well this is my first time here
23:57In London
23:58You've never been to London before
24:03So we're just setting up
24:04And then we'll bring you through
24:05It is very relaxed
24:07And we'll make sure that you have a nice time
24:09If you just take seats here
24:12Help yourself to the fruit and the juice
24:15All right?
24:16Thank you
24:16Thanks very much
24:17Thank you
24:23Is that what you're wearing?
24:26Yeah
24:26You're having a change of outfit?
24:29No, have you?
24:33I've dressed wrong, haven't I?
24:36No
24:46Did you not want me doing this?
24:49Sorry
24:50It was your campaign
24:52I told Des when he asked me
24:53Is Susan okay with it?
24:55He said fine
24:55But I know I'm not your favourite person
25:05Is it because Derek was on the reclamation?
25:07No, he was just standing in a pound
25:08Same as all of us
25:09Well then why don't you
25:10Because you're stuck up
25:12Mainly
25:15I'm
25:16I'm not entirely stuck up
25:18Are you not?
25:25It's not my campaign
25:28It's all of us
25:30Your kid got hurt
25:31Same as mine
25:33And I don't mind
25:34She asked
25:34That he didn't like me
25:41I've got some wet wipes in here
25:43She'll take the worst of the makeup off at least
25:48Tell us about when you first realised
25:50That Connor's disability
25:51Might have been caused
25:52By toxic waste mismanagement
25:56But I think it was more of a case
25:57When I realised
25:58There were more kids like Connor and Colby
26:01Kids with breast defects
26:03And other health issues too
26:07Babies who aren't even here anymore
26:10It became clear
26:11Something had gone wrong
26:13But the council just said
26:15It wasn't as me
26:16Wouldn't even let us look at their files
26:18They just
26:19Cut us dead
26:20So we knew we had to do something
26:24Maggie
26:25The impact of all this must be huge
26:28Yes
26:29Both Samuel and Susan's lovely boy Connor
26:32Have had years of operations
26:35Years of pain that will go on for the rest of their lives
26:38And we want to protect them but we can't
26:41So this fight is us doing what we can for them
26:44We're a good sized band already
26:46But you think there's more of us
26:48More mothers in Corby
26:50With her kids
26:51Well done Susan
26:52And there's a number
26:54If people are worried
26:55There's a number for people to ring you
26:57Yes
27:0201536823457
27:04And do you think
27:06Do your children understand
27:07I mean
27:08Have you been able to explain to them
27:11What this battle is all about
27:13I think Connor understands some of it
27:17Understands we're not fighting for ourselves
27:19This is a battle for the kids
27:21Because they don't have a choice
27:24So we don't have a choice
27:28What do you want for your tea?
27:30Can I have anything?
27:31Pizza
27:31Pizza?
27:32I don't know if I've got that
27:35Hello love
27:38Mum
27:39Hello son
27:40You've got him big
27:44Connor
27:44Get inside
27:49It's okay sweetheart
27:53In you go
27:55Back in a sec
28:03The polite thing to say is hello
28:05Who's the one who says hello?
28:06I don't talk to ghosts
28:08It sends you mad
28:09You've still got your wits
28:11It's good
28:11My great grandad swore he could talk to his dead son
28:14Used to sing him songs
28:16Eventually I had to give him electric shocks
28:18Yeah well I'm flesh
28:20You're flesh
28:22I just want to talk about it
28:24I just want a man who pays his way and sticks around
28:27Guess we don't all get what we want
28:29You're upset
28:31I don't blame you love
28:33Can I see the kids at least?
28:36You're not their dad, you understand?
28:39You're not that
28:40Now fuck off
28:43No fuck off
29:10Not your fault.
29:12That's mostly true.
29:16He didn't look how I expected.
29:20Thought he looked like George Clooney.
29:22No, Daniel showed me photos.
29:26Did he?
29:28But that was before. Now I thought he would look like me.
29:33No, you lucky sod.
29:35You get my good looks.
29:43Well, I've got you a tea. I keep a pot up here to stop me going dry.
29:47We're fine. Fence late.
29:49Thank you for analysing the paperwork we sent you.
29:53Do we have a case?
29:55Well, I've looked at the toxins in steel work by-product.
29:59The culprit, I think, is heavy metal cadmium.
30:04But no-one's ever studied the effects of cadmium on pregnant women.
30:08Do we have a case, Dr Perman?
30:11You can prove that they were exposed to cadmium?
30:14Pretend that I can.
30:16Then I will need to show that it could cause these defects.
30:19I believe I can make inferences from studies of agricultural workers
30:23to allow me to do so.
30:24But in cases such as these, the court requires a fetal medical specialist
30:29to be 95% certain of their findings.
30:32So we need to eliminate as many variables as possible.
30:37Which variables?
30:39In my opinion, you need to focus exclusively on babies with upper and lower limb defects.
30:46So, by variables, you mean, you talk about women? Eliminating some of the women?
30:52The pollutants you're talking about could affect with 95% certainty
30:57the fetus in that way at that time in its development.
31:00We're representing dozens of families here.
31:05If you want to win, you have 18.
31:17Dr Perman, is this...
31:18That's my professional opinion.
31:21But these are all people who've suffered.
31:24Any child that doesn't meet the criteria will weaken your entire case.
31:30I'm sorry.
31:46This is gonna be okay.
31:49This is gonna be okay.
31:51The doctors know what they're doing.
31:53Have this up.
31:55Things will be better.
32:09If it isn't my favourite patient...
32:12...
32:22Yesterday, saw thousands vote in the local elections
32:25and the results are starting to come through from the counts.
32:27Roy Thomas and his new Labour Party have won a landslide victory, taking more than half the wards in the
32:33county.
32:34A notable result was in the Corby East Ward, where Sam Hagan, now of the Anti-Corruption Party, but formerly
32:40of Labour, lost his seat.
32:4227-year-old Hamza Alali...
32:4427-year-old Hamza Alali...
32:50Don't tell my heart, my achy, breaky heart, just don't think you understand.
33:02And if you tell my heart, my achy, breaky heart, you might grow.
33:10PHONE RINGS
33:14Connor? Connor?
33:16Hey, Connor, you're...
33:18Hey, he's boiling. We're gonna help him. He's absolutely boiling.
33:21Hey, what's happening? We're gonna help him, we're gonna help him.
33:23What's happening? Connor?
33:25Can someone tell me that I'm not leaving my son?
33:27Just tell me, it's OK, Mummy's here. I'm staying here.
33:30I'm staying here.
33:31Connor, it's OK, baby, Mummy's here. Mummy's here, OK?
33:35Is he OK? He's like, what's happening?
33:37It's OK.
33:42It's OK.
33:43It's OK, babe, OK?
33:45It's OK, I take him away!
33:56Who is the baby?
33:58I know you were dead.
33:59It's OK.
34:02You're the knowing you're dead lady than I am walking in the house?
34:23Connor has an infection which has led to an increase in heart rate.
34:26If it goes into his bloodstream, he may be facing a sepsis risk.
34:30We reopen the hand and we're pumping antibiotics into the wound to clean out any infected tissue.
34:35He should soon stabilize.
34:38Susan, there's nothing that will be done now till morning.
34:42I suggest you go home.
34:43What if it doesn't stabilize?
34:45Sorry?
34:47What if it is sepsis?
34:50Then we'll...
34:52We may need to look at amputating tissue.
34:54Tissue?
34:55What does that mean?
34:58You won't have to cut off his hand, will you?
35:00There's a long way to go before that happens.
35:24Hello?
35:29Sorry, I'm...
35:32Just a wee catnap. My name's Sam Hagen.
35:34Yeah, I know who you are, Councillor Hagen.
35:39I need you to make me a promise.
35:41We'll promise you after.
35:44That you're not trying to profit from these mothers.
35:49I'm working a no-win-no-fee.
35:52I'll make something that does turn out right, but not much.
35:56It'll take other work to survive.
36:01I've never agreed with court cases.
36:05Everybody's always taken everybody to court now, Ned.
36:08Mm-hmm.
36:09But equally, I do think that it might be the only way to stop them.
36:13They do need stopping.
36:21I can't tell you who gave me them,
36:25but I can tell you you're going to need them.
36:34And I'm not a counsellor any more, by the way.
37:02I do need some time for her.
37:15roof
37:17He's going to be OK.
37:19If he loses his hand, I'm cutting off mine.
37:21He's not going to lose anything.
37:23He's lost enough, you know.
37:26He's lost enough.
37:31Not as much as you.
37:35There's a lot of competition.
37:37It's all unfair.
37:41It's like you hated hospitals.
37:43Oh, I do.
37:46Especially this one.
37:54Poor kid.
37:56Have they given that a percentage?
37:58His chances of keeping the hand?
38:02No.
38:03They haven't given a percentage.
38:07What can I do?
38:10Win the case.
38:14How's it going?
38:16You anywhere with the full tests?
38:19Or whatever you call them.
38:21Yeah.
38:22We're...
38:25Yeah, we're doing OK.
38:29Listen, Tracy...
38:34You know the thinking of turning this place into a call centre?
38:40I miss it sometimes.
38:45I don't miss cleaning my car twice a day, but...
38:49Certain places get inside you, you know?
38:53Yes, I do.
38:58After my dad died, I thought I was done with Colby.
39:02I still looked into moving my offices south.
39:06Shame on you.
39:10Then I read about you lot and suddenly...
39:13Here I am still.
39:17What do they call him again, your dad?
39:19Was it Foot Rock?
39:21His name was Larry.
39:26The idea of being Susan's headmaster.
39:29Oof.
39:29There's a lot to live up to.
39:35Why did you have to wash your car twice a day?
39:38Dust.
39:40Got everywhere.
39:41Got inside everything.
39:44Mark had to replace the blades on my windscreen wipers three times.
39:47With dust?
39:49Was that bad?
39:50Only here, because of the sight and the lorries and the spill.
39:56And when the slop dried on the road, it went everywhere.
40:02Never even considered...
40:04Fuck!
40:08Fuck!
40:12Fuck!
40:20Right.
40:21Okay.
40:23Swing your legs round.
40:27Go gentle, yeah?
40:34Bigger, you take that up to your dad, yeah?
40:36Will do.
40:54Do you want to play something?
40:57Yeah.
41:00I probably had enough of me, eh?
41:04Play well.
41:13It kept in the sofa, not in my bed.
41:17I didn't feel right to do otherwise.
41:19That sofa's terrible.
41:21The neighbour's cat's pissed on it twice.
41:22No, I didn't smell that.
41:24It must have got rid of the worst of it.
41:30Is he going to be okay?
41:32Didn't have to amputate, if that's what you mean.
41:36But I had to take off the toe.
41:39So he's back to having just one in his hand.
41:43Right.
41:51Thanks for covering Daniel.
41:55For picking up.
41:57No one else is free, so...
42:06Can I say I'm sorry?
42:09About what?
42:10About the things you said on telly.
42:13I want to bloody stand myself in the leg
42:16for leaving you with...
42:18all that.
42:19I could do it for you, if you like.
42:21I've got a knife somewhere.
42:26I know what I did, Susie.
42:30And I'm sorry.
42:35I sort of need you to forgive me.
42:38Do you?
42:41Really?
42:48Daniel said you forced Connor into it.
42:51It's up.
42:55I guess we're all...
42:59None of us are perfect.
43:00That's all I'm saying.
43:01And you think that's the same thing?
43:04You didn't forget to buy the milk.
43:06You fucking left.
43:08Now you get to see them,
43:09but Peter, you never get to talk to me like that again.
43:12Not now, not ever.
43:26Right.
43:26What are you having?
43:27And don't say nothing, because this isn't a charity house.
43:30A glass of tap water then, please, Patty.
43:32Twat.
43:33Oh, I'll have a pint.
43:34Oh, you won't.
43:37OK.
43:38OK, thanks for coming.
43:40Just wanted to update you on how it's all going.
43:44First things first, the RHA report...
43:50..we can prove is utter statistical nonsense.
43:54Thanks.
43:56Our findings show that the rate of limb abnormality in Corby
44:00is three times higher than the regional average.
44:06We also have what we think is a strong angle
44:09on how the toxins got into your bodies.
44:12Having consulted with our expert,
44:15we believe that we can prove that the toxins entered your system
44:19by dust.
44:23You breathed it in.
44:26This dust, it contained a heavy metal called cadmium,
44:32and it's...
44:34Well, according to our expert,
44:36the cloud that the dust created,
44:39it poisoned you.
44:43So, as such, I'm now in the photo collection business.
44:47Any photo that you've got that has got a bit of the road
44:50or the pavement on these sites, your homes included,
44:53I want them.
44:55Tony Cox, our expert,
44:58he thinks that this dust travelled for miles.
45:04It affected the whole town.
45:07We've said from the start that we need to be able to prove,
45:10knowing negligence on behalf of the council,
45:13that we have come into possession of some documents
45:16that we believe proves that.
45:20So, our four pillars have been answered.
45:25And I think...
45:28Well, we are building something that we think has a chance of a settlement.
45:33A good chance.
45:37We have a case, Maggie.
45:39That's enough for me.
45:54Hey.
45:55Hey.
45:55Do you want a cup of chamomile?
45:57No, I just want to go to bed.
46:03It was dust.
46:05It was dust.
46:05They think it was dust.
46:06Dust we all breathed in.
46:09Dust you brought home.
46:11Not that you knew.
46:13Dust?
46:14You serious?
46:18They have a case, Derek.
46:21We've got one.
46:22And we're gonna win.
46:34It was good tonight, eh?
46:36Bit scary.
46:38Yeah.
46:40I felt scared too.
46:43It certainly made me want to hoover a bit more regularly.
46:47Oh, when did you get so handsome?
46:49You are!
46:51You think so?
46:52Yeah.
46:54You won't...
46:56That's it now.
46:58For ops.
46:59Okay.
47:01I mean no more ops.
47:05Thanks, Mum.
47:08I love your hand.
47:10Because I love you.
47:14Bye.
47:16Night, babe.
47:18How much gel have you got in your hair?
47:20Jesus.
47:25Night, Evelyn.
47:28Night, Evelyn.
47:36Do we have all we need?
47:40Well, that depends.
47:42Are you taking Dr Penman's advice?
47:44Reducing the list?
47:49I don't know.
47:53Okay.
47:55We need Penman's testimony.
47:57She needs to know.
47:59Well, Tracy's not the only one after death.
48:01No, but if she's going to be excluded from the case, there's...
48:04She needs to know.
48:11When things are in motion.
48:14If there are no other options.
48:16Not till then.
48:20I don't know.
48:27I don't know.
48:32I don't know.
48:38I don't know.
48:39I don't know.
48:44What are you thinking about?
48:50Justice.
48:57We're gonna get justice.
49:22OK.
49:50We're ready.
49:51We're sorry.
